Top 10 Travel Gadgets You Need


  1. Packing Cubes


Packing cubes are a great way to save space in your luggage. They help you to keep loose items such as underwear and socks tucked neatly into one space. If you're a light traveller a system involving packing cubes can keep your small bag organized. However, do they really need to be so expensive? I have had this set for years and use them every trip. They are constructed out of quality materials that will last you for many trips to come.




2. Suitcase Cupholder


This gadget allows you to have that water bottle stored somewhere easily accessible while still allowing you to keep one hand free while you tow your luggage along. This option is a fan favourite for those of us with children or pets travelling with us.



3. Phone Mount


Sometimes you board a flight and it doesn't have an entertainment system. Or maybe you just don't want to watch what is on the menu. This holder is an excellent gadget for watching videos on the plane. It can connect to your tray table and adjusts to the angle you need. It also rotates 360 degrees.






4. Electronic Cable Organizer


If you're like me, then you bring along a lot of cords for electronics. Phones, tablets, computers, cameras. This case makes it much easier to store all your cords in one organized place. It is strong and durable and keeps your cords secure and convenient for when you need them.





5. Hanging Toiletry Bag


This bag is a nice size; you can fit your shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste and makeup into one bag. As a bonus, it's waterproof, protecting your luggage from leaks or acting as a shower bag. It consists of four compartments and has an added front zipper pocket. The hook is metal and allows you to hang it wherever it is convenient.

6. Passport Holder


Every self-respecting border hopper has one of these. It has RFID Blocking material. This one comes with multiple inside slots, and you can carry passports and cards. There's added room for a pen, keychain, and a pocket for coins. For quickly accessing necessary documents in the airport, there is a zipper pocket and a velcro pocket on the outside.





7. Silicone Bottles


Save some space in your checked luggage, or if you are travelling with only a carry-on. Make sure to get yourself some silicone bottles. These are TSA Approved and meet the requirement for carry-on luggage. Better yet, they come with labels that you can customize. They have a triple seal cap, ensuring leakproof transportation. They are made from food grade silicone, FDA approved and they are 100% BPA free.




8. Jewelry Organizer


Whether you are spending a weekend in Las Vegas, hopping a cruise from Florida, or hitting up a conference in Toronto. Chances are you may bring some jewelry with you. This organizer is two layers and has a strap for your necklaces. There's a ring holder and a spot for up to 9 pairs of earrings.





9. Travel Pillow


For Travel Pillows, if you want something lightweight, you'll be packing it through the airport. But you don't want to forgo comfort for weight. This pillow has a design that is successful at supporting your neck and head. It also comes with earplugs to drown out the plane noises, a sleeping mask and a carrying bag. The bag is a selling feature for me. I don't like my pillow rubbing up on people and objects and getting filthy, this protects it from that problem. The pillow also has a drawstring so that you can adjust how tight it sits on your neck. It also has a storage pocket on the side just in case you need to slip something in there while you sleep.




10. Silicone Makeup Brush Holder


Protect your makeup brushes from dust or damage with this case. It's easy to clean, and can hold 2 large brushes or up to 5 small brushes. It also makes a great gift.





There are tons of neat gadgets out there to make your travel a little bit easier. Hopefully some of these on the list make a difference for you.
